“Nana” Coining.
A woman of remarkable beauty, a personality of compelling attraction, and an actress of great talent—such is Anna Sten, the Russian star of “Nana,” the magnificent United Artists’ production which will be shown at the Plaza Theatre shortly. In Anna Sten is revealed a new star of the first magnitude. She has voice, face, figure and that strange and unexplainable thing, “ screen presence.” In the film version of “ Nana,” the novel by Emile Zola which startled the English-reading public many years ago by its daring, Anna Sten is seen as Zola’s “ Lady of the boulevards,” but the story is handled in a much more subdued way.
